Quit making faces at the one I love These errant tightropes that you're thinking of Can't be undone the instant that they're set Above this scorched and torrid hallowed ground or So they say (in the city) So they say (in the sea) Set your watch (round the corner) While they bleed I heard a rumour that you lost your job Was it just hearsay or of factual ground?
